Tonight at 7:00 on the “Evening Concert” on FM 90.9 it’s the “Chicago Symphony Orchestra Radio Broadcast”. Pekka Kuusisto is the soloist in Nielsen’s “Violin Concerto”. Hannu Lintu guest conducts. Also on the program Nielsen’s “Helios Overture” and Sibelius’ “Finlandia” and “5th Symphony”.
You'll hear his "Finlandia", the "2nd Symphony", and the "Violin Concerto"...plus...
What "Philharmonic" is that? New York, of course!
Including the Chichester Psalms and the 3rd Symphony.
It took Mendelssohn six years to complete. Do you think it took Christian Tetzlaff six years to learn to play Mendelssohn's "Violin Concerto"? Perhaps. The answer depends on what age he started to learn the work.
